Wow
You were really onto something here, today is March 19 2017 I have the benefit of foresight here.
This is a great example where the money is really made in the “holding and adding” as you stay into a winning trending posiiton.
Of which you outline in your course, but in each trade how does one know it will become a huge winner, well we don’t and that’s the that.
How to overcome this: Become passive and don’t focus on the PnL. Easier said than done.
The only way I can figure out on how to overcome this is to have some one else manage your postion that knows your trading rules. Essentially they have no emotional connection to the trade. Staying away from a winning position is actually a very powerful thing but is the hardest.
The right trading buddy would help in this case and in many other areas as well.
Trading in isolation will only give one perspective at best.
Yes- this was a great trading opportunity. As you have seen from my trading strategy, scaling up in the right direction by using the right methodology . As you said, it is easier said than done, but that is why there are trading rules written down, which need to be followed. If you think finding another person to help you with that, feel free to do it. As long as your PnL is growing, there is nothing wrong with it.
